Applique round.......

Today I finished the fourth round - or applique round - of the Round Robin patriotic quilt that Lindsay and I are doing. It was her suggestion to add words as my applique and I really liked the idea. I chose words from the hymn, My Country, 'Tis of Thee - from every mountainside let freedom ring. I also added some gold stars to bring that aspect from the center on out.

Today I am grateful, as I am every day, for the freedom that we enjoy in this country.

About Me

Retired and loving it. Now I have plenty of time to quilt, stitch, stamp, knit, read, and volunteer at church. There is also time to be lazy, stare out the window, waste time on the computer, and do Sudoku puzzles. I'm a happy camper!
